WOOD'S FOCUS SHIFTED TO DIVORCE AFTER TV AXE

RONNIE WOOD's estranged wife JO was devastated after she was booted from a U.K. reality competition - because now she has to focus on finalising her divorce with the ROLLING STONE.
The 54 year old agreed to participate in TV talent show Strictly Come Dancing to take her mind off her break-up with the rocker, who walked away from their 23-year marriage last summer (09) to be with a 20-year-old Russian waitress.
Despite her best efforts, Wood was voted out of the contest on Saturday (24Oct09) and now she's filled with dread as she prepares to tackle her next hurdle - the couple's divorce.
She explains, "Oh God, yes, I've got that to think about next. Next year, I'll sort my divorce out."
But Wood insists competing in the dance series has given her the confidence to face her husband: "It made me go out and do something for myself rather than for him. It was such a great challenge and I really believe if you challenge yourself in life it makes you stronger."
